Perception is everything. "The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, But in ourselves..." - William Shakespeare ------------------------------------------------------------ Sadie and Esther, two elderly widows, are sitting, people-watching, in a Catskill hotel lobby. "You know," says Sadie, "I've been reading this 'Sex and Marriage' book and all they talk about is mutual orgasm. Mutual orgasm here, mutual orgasm there, that's all they talk about. Tell me, Esther, when your husband was alive, did you two ever have mutual orgasm?" "No," says Esther, "I think we had State Farm."
